All-Star Game outside of the United States is held at Montreal’s Olympic Stadium

On July 13, 1982, the first All-Star Game outside of the United States is held at Montreal’s Olympic Stadium. In the first All-Star game played outside the United States, the National League cruises to its 11th straight win, beating the American League at Montreal’s Olympic Stadium, 4 – 1. Dave Concepcion’s 2nd-inning two-run homer off Red Sox starter Dennis Eckersley is the turning point of the game. Montreal Expos right-hander Steve Rogers earns the victory. The NL has now won 19 of the last 20 contests.@ET-DC@eyJkeW5hbWljIjp0cnVlLCJjb250ZW50IjoicG9zdF90YWdzIiwic2V0dGluZ3MiOnsiYmVmb3JlIjoiTGVhcm4gTW9yZSBhYm91dCB0aGUgdGVhbXMsIHBsYXllcnMsIGJhbGwgcGFya3MgYW5kIGV2ZW50cyB0aGF0IGhhcHBlbmVkIG9uIHRoaXMgZGF0ZSBpbiBoaXN0b3J5IGp1c3QgY2xpY2sgdGhlIHRhZ3MhICAiLCJhZnRlciI6IiIsImxpbmtfdG9fdGVybV9wYWdlIjoib24iLCJzZXBhcmF0b3IiOiIgfCAiLCJjYXRlZ29yeV90eXBlIjoicG9zdF90YWcifX0=@
